Need a cure for your cold, but it’s chilly outside so you dread driving to get Chinese take-out? I have got a solution for you: Cheater’s Wonton Noodle Soup, on the table within the hour.
This soup is a wonderful way to welcome the chilly weather and definitely comforting and satisfying. Feel free to use chicken, ground turkey as substitutes for shrimps filling. This recipe is simple and not traditional like the Chinese version because I cheated and use store-bought chicken stock, but don’t worry, it’ll taste just as delicious and satisfying.
I hope you love this recipe as it’s simple and easy, plus it’s also freezer-friendly!!
Last minute cravings of Chinese take-out? No problem, I got you’ve covered with this wonton noodles soup.
KitchenTips;
Don’t put too much filling, one tablespoon is ideal so it’s easier to seal the wonton wrappers.
Seal the edges with egg yolk (or water) to prevent the filling from falling out.
Use less sodium chicken broth so it’s easier when it comes to seasoning your broth.
